Differentfrom previous isolated lab experiments, the new project requires students to integrate multipleexperiments to design and build complex integrated circuits to solve a practical problem.Students first designed multiple electronic circuit modules to separately implement temperaturemeasurement, temperature comparison and actuator control and then integrated all electroniccircuit modules as complete electronic diagrams. Second, they used electronic circuit elements inlab to build integrated circuits on breadboards according to the complete electronic diagrams.Further

deflection of the member and therefore failure. Thisstructural failure is known as buckling and might happen even if the compressive strength of thematerial is larger than applied compressive force. Euler in 1757 developed a mathematical modelfor maximum buckling capacity of a member. He presented the maximum load that a membercan carry before failure due to buckling as a function of the length, moment of inertia of thecross section, modulus of elasticity of material and the fixity conditions of the member. Mostly,civil engineering students learn about the theory of buckling in the spring of their sophomoreyear in a Statics II course. Static II is combined with a two-hour weekly laboratory session. Inthis laboratory course different modes of failure

BendingAbstractMany engineering courses have lecture components but no laboratory component. Althoughlecture courses of this sort can be strengthened through the incorporation of active or problem-based learning, the addition of short, focused experiments can have a profound effect on studentlearning, motivation, and retention of knowledge. This paper describes the development of asmall, portable beam bending apparatus to highlight concepts of stress and strain in anundergraduate strength of materials course. The experiments are designed to target particularconcepts about which students typically have misconceptions. The apparatus was fabricated andimplemented in a single section of strength of materials, and preliminary data was gathered onstudent

work environments [1]-[6]. Among them, most prominently are writing andpresentation skills. A parallel curriculum addressing these non-scientific/technical skills isusually a strong contributor towards these goals. Another tool generally more directly controlledby science/engineering faculty is using courses in the discipline, especially laboratory courses, toemphasize writing components and/or presentation skills. Lab reports can serve as a very goodtool to sharpen writing skills or, more extensively, the skills needed to produce a coherent, wellthought, well-written scientific paper or technical report.A more comprehensive approach to different paths and philosophies for the teaching of writingskills and its balance can be found in the
